A critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-33905) discovered in Telegram allowed attackers to hijack user accounts with a single click!

Here's how the exploit worked:

1. Malicious Mini-App: Attackers would create malicious Telegram mini-apps.
2. Deceptive Pop-up: When launched, the mini-app would display a seemingly harmless pop-up window asking the victim to click "OK."
3. Session Hijacked: Clicking "OK" unknowingly granted the attacker control over the victim's Telegram session, even bypassing two-factor authentication!

This vulnerability was particularly dangerous as it could be easily embedded in seemingly harmless clickbait, putting countless users at risk.

The good news:

* The vulnerability was reported to Telegram on March 9, 2024.
* While details about the fix are unavailable, users should be wary of suspicious mini-apps and avoid clicking on unverified pop-ups.

Samsung Galaxy S24 FE Spotted at GeekBench

Samsung Galaxy S24 Fan Edition will launch at the Samsung Unpacked event on 10th July which 'might' take place in Paris, France

Specifications:
• 6.1" AMOLED Display
• 8GB/12GB LPDDR5X RAM
• 256GB (UFS 4.0)/ 128GB (UFS 3.1) storage
• 4500mAh battery

Now, the S24 FE will be powered by the Samsung Exynos 2400 processor
In case you missed it, the Samsung Xclipse 940 is a "Hexa-core" GPU

But the clock speed of the Cortex-X4 prime core is a bit lower than expected in Exynos 2400 with the Galaxy S24 FE
Normally, the Exynos 2400 Cortex-X4 cores runs at 3.2GHz, here it is listed as 3.1GHz

So the S24FE is powered by flagship Exynos 2400 SOC, with big core clock speed slightly decreased, from 3.21 to 3.11 (GHz)

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is coming

Qualcomm has revealed that it will hold the next Snapdragon Summit 2024 event from October 21-23, 2024, in Maui, Hawaii

Now, the Snapdragon 8 gen 4 will be the first Qualcomm SoC to be based on a custom ARM instruction set with Nuvia core instead of ARM's cortex cores

Part Number: SM-8750
GPU: Adreno 8xx @ 1.15GHz

CPU:
2× Phoenix large @ 4.2GHz
6× Phoenix Medium @ 3.0GHz
Manufactured by TSMC on its 3nm process (N3B)

Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 GPU upgrades would be MASSIVE!
Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will utilize an upgraded GPU architecture with improved cache and memory compression technology.

The architecture is called “Slice GPU architecture” wherein the GPU is divided into multiple independent physical units called “slices.” Each slice has its own pipeline, cache, and memory.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 would also feature a new 'memory compression algorithm', for the first time since the release of Snapdragon 650 in 2016.

This new technology is called "dynamic wave pairing" & it was patented by Qualcomm in 2022.
Dynamic Wave Pairing will allow the GPU to distribute tasks more efficiently as it can assign workloads to different sections within itself, and then choose the most suitable one to handle that specific task.

Although the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 can reach 3100 in single-core on Geekbench, however, will power consumption will suck a lot & it might heat too.
Thus, many Chinese brands will incorporate 6,000mAh larger batteries in their smartphones to compensate for power consumption in the Qualcomm chip
